Actually, for the first plan, if they could personally find the Thousand Luo Ghost King, they would have a higher chance of success.
However, because it wasn't convenient for Chen Hongyuan and the others to show themselves, they could only rely on this Ghost Emissarie. Moreover, although Cheng Yu had used a secret technique to control the souls of these guys, they weren't sure if these guys would cause trouble in front of the Thousand Luo Ghost King.
After all, the Ghost King was powerful. Even if this Ghost Emissarie didn't betray them, they were worried that they would expose themselves.
Therefore, they didn't dare to take the risk. They could only let the guard commander go and report. If it was successful, it would naturally be better than anything else. If it wasn't successful, then they could only use the second plan.
Chen Hongyuan and the others were very nervous, but the ghost cultivators were even more nervous. Because the Ghost Emissarie had already arranged for a few trusted aides to be in charge of opening the city gates, they already knew the true purpose of these humans. They were still very nervous.
After all, if they did this today, it would mean that they had betrayed Hades. If they survived in the future, they might not have the chance to return to Hades.
Although they were unwilling in their hearts, when they thought about how their lives were in the hands of these humans, they were helpless and could only throw caution to the wind.
They didn't dare to think too much about whether they could return to Hades or not. Right now, they just wanted to survive.
Waiting was always an anxious thing. Before entering the city, they had always been worried that Cheng Yu would be able to delay until they entered the city.
Now that they had entered the city, they started to worry about why Cheng Yu still hadn't appeared. Could something have gone wrong?
At this moment, Cheng Yu was fighting with those Ghost Kings from Mount Wu. Because he had to consider that Chen Hongyuan and the others had to sneak into Sun Yin City first, he was unable to accurately estimate the time. He could only delay for as long as he could.
Thus, his escape speed wasn't very fast. After 'risking his life' several times, he was' accidentally 'caught up by the Ghost Kings of Mount Wu.
In the end, Cheng Yu had already fought with these Ghost Kings of Mount Wu many times. Of course, in order to not let these Ghost Kings suspect him, Cheng Yu let them hit him several times. Therefore, Cheng Yu was already injured.
However, this injury was not serious. In order to make these ghost kings continue to chase after him, he acted very seriously. He even made them feel that he was using up his last bit of strength to escape.
"My Lord, we can't give chase anymore. If we continue, we will enter the territory of Sun Moon City. If we are discovered by the ghost guards of Sun Moon City, we may be attacked by the Ghost Soldiers of Sun Moon City!" A ghost king saw that they were close to Sun Moon City and felt inexplicably worried.
"This won't do. We must capture this Ghost King today. We've spent so much effort to seriously injure him. As long as we intercept him, he will never be able to escape!" However, how could the Governor be willing to give up such a great opportunity?
Moreover, so many Ghost Kings had surrounded and tried to capture this Ghost King so many times, but they still couldn't take this Ghost King down. Where would he put his face? How was he going to face his subordinates in the future?
Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, even if there were tens of thousands of Netherworld soldiers waiting for him, he couldn't let this Ghost King escape just like that. Otherwise, not only would he embarrass himself today, but he would also embarrass Mount Wu Lai.
Would they be able to mock Mount Wu Lai's incompetence when they saw the ghost cultivators of the Underworld in the future? Twenty Ghost Kings couldn't even catch a single Ghost King from the Underworld?
"But my Lord, we might get into trouble if we continue to chase after him!" However, the other Ghost Kings didn't have the courage to do so.
Compared to this Ghost King's life, they felt that their lives were much more important.
It was fine if he escaped. After all, they would only lose one Ghost King. However, if they continued to chase after him, it was very likely that they wouldn't be able to catch the enemy and would instead lose their lives. That wouldn't be worth it.
"Then hurry up and chase after him. As long as we catch up to him before he reaches Sun Moon City, you won't have to worry!" The Governor shouted loudly.
As the Governor, his considerations were naturally different from the Ghost Kings'. The ghost cultivators who had come to support Mount Wu Lai this time were prepared to fight the Underworld.
However, he didn't expect that before they even started, the Underworld would inexplicably lose a big fire, burning more than half of their Underworld soldiers to death, almost completely annihilating them.
However, at the same time, with such a situation occurring, they didn't manage to do anything even after coming here. Since they were here, they had to show the aura of Mount Wu Lai. They had to let the Underworld know that their Mount Wu Lai was not something that they could easily attack, even if the Underworld was indeed very strong.
Therefore, this time, his mission with Lord Wu Jiang was not as simple as supporting the ghost cultivators in the Mount Wu Lai mine. Otherwise, Lord Wu Jiang wouldn't have sent so many Ghost Kings to help.
Of course, although he had come here with such a mission, Cheng Yu had indeed provoked his anger.
From the mine to here, this guy had been surrounded by them several times, but he had successfully broken out of the encirclement again and again. He was really unwilling.
Perhaps it was because of these two reasons that he couldn't let Cheng Yu go no matter what. What's more, Cheng Yu was obviously at the end of his rope. If he didn't take this opportunity to take him down, when he really reached Sun Moon City, there really wouldn't be a chance anymore.
When the Ghost Kings saw the Governor's determination, they knew that it was impossible to change his mind even if they continued to persuade him. They could only grit their teeth and speed up again, hoping to catch up to that guy.
Just like what the Governor had said, if they didn't want to be ambushed by the Underworld soldiers, they had to stop this Ghost King before he reached Sun Moon City.
Actually, Cheng Yu didn't dare to go too fast because he was afraid that when he reached Sun Moon City, Chen Hongyuan and the others would still be outside the city. Therefore, he deliberately slowed down and looked at the Ghost Kings behind him. He was also a little worried. He didn't know if these guys would continue to chase after him.
What if they stopped chasing after him when they reached Sun Moon City?
"Looks like we'll have to fight them again!" Although the Ghost Kings of Mount Wu Lai were still chasing behind him, Cheng Yu was very afraid that these guys would suddenly escape when they reached Sun Moon City. If that happened, all his previous plans would be in vain.
Therefore, he decided to slow down again and treat it as his' injury 'worsening.
As a result, unfortunately, Cheng Yu was once again surrounded by these Ghost Kings' expectations.
